Jack and I went to the Effie Yeaw Nature Center as part of his playgroup this week-end. It was a beautiful day for early March. Nearly 80 degrees and sunny.

As we approached the river we were stopped by a photographer asking about the "two kids". Turns out he had gotten some great unposed shots of them and offered to email them to us. Turns out this was a professional photographer and his work is great.
